Availability of used is a crapshoot. You can't count on anything in particular coming up for sale. Kind of like (come to think of it) the market...
The trigger doesn't get better. You can polish and smooth and tweak, but it doesn't help much. There was a tiny handful of CZ-110 (I think it...
CZ100, oh my. Had one, back near 20 years ago. Never reliable for me, eventually traded it off. Maybe filter through this long thread:...
That's what I hear. I ended up getting a Simply Rugged Silver Dollar for mine, as they listed explicitly for the Bulldog.
Was by a local place last week. Plain Jane blue Taurus 605, $399. I checked Gunbroker completed auctions -- yeah, that's pretty much what...
My thoughts on your choices. "$500 or less" and ".357" means Charter Arms or Taurus. Charters have a tendency to (in my experience) eat transfer...
I wouldn't. For starters, the aluminum grip frame on the Charter Arms isn't going to be as strong as the steel on the Colts from back in the day....
Wilderness Tactical will size way up. Waaaaaay up. The size chart lists up to "15X", 96" to 101".
Charter grips are decent. Pachmayr Compac are (IMHO & YMMV) very nice.
With laser? Ahh, OK, you're going to have trouble. Adding a laser, even a popular one, to a gun, even a popular one, makes you holster options...
Interesting. Looks like they're down to the 3" and 4" 9mm XD.
Reliability is number one. If it's not reliable, and I can't make it so, it gets retired or "rehomed". I have had guns that were not reliable...
Yes, for a few months now. Nope.
Dude. Shield, if you're serious.
It's a regular XD, with a single magazine and no fancy box and no extra gear kit.
Galco Triton. Kydex-ish plastic, IWB. Get the optional belt loop.
9mm. Much of the "Internet gun social media herd mind" currently hates on .40. I am not of that opinion. But, it needs to be shot through a big...
Does it have to be .357? (Because, S&W .38 snubs can be had for about that.)
Buy the Lee Classic Turret Kit. Get the Lee 4 die set for whatever it is you're wanting to load. Get the Auto Drum powder measure. Prime on...
Rock Island GI, full size, .45 ACP.
